# Speak & Translate vs Translator+ Plus

The clearest difference is monetization model: Speak & Translate at freemium against Translator+ Plus's subscription. Speak & Translate also leads on ratings volume (259K vs 99) and rating (4.5 vs 4.2). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Speak & Translate sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days and Translator+ Plus sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Speak & Translate holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Speak & Translate has 259K ratings behind it against 99, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 48% of Speak & Translate's written reviews are positive against 44% of Translator+ Plus's.

Speak & Translate ships an update every 3 weeks, Translator+ Plus every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
